Apple just announced that the iPad Pro will be available to order online starting this Wednesday, November 11. You’ll also be able to buy the super-sized tablet at the Apple Store and other authorized resellers by the end of the week.

The iPad Pro starts at $799 for the 32GB model, or $949 for a whopping 128GB of storage. There’s also a 128GB LTE variant for $1079. Of course, you’ll probably also want to pick up an Apple Pencil ($99) and a new Smart Keyboard ($169) when sales on the new accessories go live at the same time.

Despite its high price, Apple says there’s already plenty of people interested in the new device. “The early response to iPad Pro from app developers and our customers has been incredible, and we’re excited to get iPad Pro into the hands of customers around the world this week,” said Apple’s marketing chief Philip Schiller. He added that it’s “the most powerful iPad we’ve ever made.”

The iPad Pro really does pack some powerful hardware, including a 12.9-inch display, a new A9X chip, 4GB of RAM and a 10-hour battery. The new Apple Pencil will also introduce a refined drawing experience for anyone who spends a lot of time with a pen in hand.

If you’re already determined to grab the iPad Pro, you may want to set an alarm now—rumor has it stock could be pretty limited at launch. If you don’t mind waiting a little longer, we’ll have a full review just as soon as we can get our hands on Apple’s 12.9-inch tablet.
